Eric,

Is anybody still using reverb on the microphone channels?


Few, thankfully. However, at least some mic processing is nearly
ubiquitous at major market stations.


Compression and EQ, certainly, but I'm referring to the old WABC trademark
reverb-on-screaming-boss-jock sound...


Didn't WABC once use an EMT plate reverb?


So I was told (I never actually visited the TX, where the unit allegedly
resided). Moreover, having heard a LOT of WABC during its glory days, I can
attest that the reverb was used quite sparingly, particularly by comparison
to some other stations of the time.
